Heritage

The story of Copperpot begins in 1978 in a Cornish seaside town, when Ken and Doreen Brian opened their first fudge shop. They’ve been serving up sweet treats ever since.

David’s chef-training in London coupled with granny’s tasting expertise developed the first batch of fudge on their stove in a traditional copper pot. This family recipe is still the cornerstone of the business today.

Granny Doreen, Grandad Ken and David have now retired, and David’s son Mark holds the reigns as Managing Director – making three generations of family fudge expertise!

Process

The clue is in the name! But why copper pots?

Copper has a long history as the best metal for making confectionery equipment owing to excellent conductive properties. Our range of fudge is now made in a bespoke kitchen where the product is batch-cooked and cooled on racks, then hand-broken.
